Robin Clym

As the eldery man spoke to Skye, Robin quickly observed him. Normally he would just ignore the eldery man and continue whatever it was that he was doing, but there were several factors that he had to take into consideration.
One, the eldery man was either a loon, or he seemed to be involved in the mystery of the moonstone that Robin held in his hand.
Two, Sennid was not exactly the most sociable of people, but she might be biting off more than she could chew if she tries to pick on the eldery man, especially if his observations were correct.
Clearing his throat, Robin replied to the eldery man in a firm voice( not yet rough from use), trying to attract Sennid's and Thalali's attention to what he was going to say, "Time? I am afraid I do not understand what is it that you are trying to say."
Pausing for while, he continued to speak, "Your charity is much appreciated, but I am afraid we do not know each other. I am Robin Clym, they are Sennid and Thalali," then pointing to Skye, "and she is Skye. You must be a strong man to be able to survive in the mountains, not to mention that you wield such a heavy... steelpike staff."
Robin paused again to let it sink in, then for the benefit for everybody, he proceeded to explain a bit more, "Steelpike is a type of wood that is as heavy and strong as steel. So dense is this wood, that it cannot float on water. It is not often that I see an eldery man carry such a staff around. Nice smell you have there too, I presume it is a rose scent?"
Robin stopped talking. He hoped the other two got the gist of his message and contented himself to sitting back now and seeing what was going to happen next.
